To randomly redraw districts every 1 to 2 years to avoid juicing districts for outcomes…..

Let me guess, you despise the 'Rockefeller medical system'?

You could maybe do something regarding area vs perimeter.
Simple example, an area of 16 units can have a perimeter as few as 16 units (square - I ain't messing with circles) or in excess of 34 units (16x1).
Would provide some metric for over gerrymandered districts.
Obviously it has to be normalized for geographic restraints and population density, but could show the degree of manual intervention.
Or I am already high this morning.

In redistricting it's called compactness and there are quite a few different measurements ... we focus on three here in Texas. There is no legal standard for it but that statistic is available to users.

So is that how we got Bastrop drawn into the same district as Corpus Christi and nearly the entire coastal bend? Not very compact...

The stats are available ... but there isn't a legal requirement for districts to be compact. Drawers tend of have other goals in mind, lol.
